Dr Jennifer Walden Interviews With Marta Walsh
I’ve recently interviewed renowned plastic surgeon Dr Jennifer Walden for Beauty Interviews, and picked her brains on what to expect when considering plastic surgery.
Plastic Surgeon Dr Jennifer Walden.
Dr. Jennifer Walden is a Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon who is fellowship-trained in aesthetic surgery and board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. She currently is an associate attending in Plastic Surgery at Manhattan Eye, Ear and Throat Hospital and Lenox Hill Hospital. She is also a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons. Her office is located at in Manhattan at 50 East 71st Street(on the corner of Park Avenue and 71st Street).

In this interview Dr Walden talks to Marta Walsh about her fascination with plastic surgery which began in junior high, some of the challenges of being a woman plastic surgeon, her passion for sharing her knowledge in plastic surgery, gives advice to anyone considering plastic surgery for the first time, and best celebrity plastic surgery makeovers.
Marta Walsh: When did your fascination with plastic surgery begin?
Dr Jennifer Walden: My fascination with surgery began when I was in junior high, and one of our science projects was to dissect a pig. My science teacher told me I was going to be a surgeon after I completed the project in one day, after my lab partner left the room in disgust. As for plastic surgery, I decided I enjoyed the realm of producing visible surgical results and the immediate gratification that comes with that when I was a medical student in Texas.

Kanye West at Tory Burch Fashion Show
Kanye West was seen at the Tory Burch fashion show this past Wednesday during New York Fashion Week Fall 2009. And I have a small video of Kanye West and photos. Enjoy!
Tory Burch fashion was one my favorites during New York Fashion Week. I loved the clothes, the models, the music, and Tory Burch herself. Not sure if you’ve seen Tory Burch’s photos before, but she is very pretty!

Warren Tricomi New York The Plaza
On my recent trip to New York city for fashion week I stopped by at the Warren Tricomi salon at The Plaza Hotel. The salon is just beautiful! I was there to cover hair and makeup for the Luca Luca fashion show for Fall 2009.
I met Edward Tricomi and Joel Warren which was quite a thrill for me.

After I was introduced to Edward Tricomi I asked Edward if he approved my hairstyle. Edward examined my hair for few seconds and asked if he can fix my haircut because “it just doesn’t flow”. His assistant blew dry my hair and prepared it for that one in a lifetime haircut opportunity with Edward Tricomi. There I was getting my hair done by Edward Tricomi.

Needless to say, Edward Tricomi did an amazing job! I LOVE how he fixed the pieces that frame my face. Although I chopped by hair right before New York Fashion Week about 6 inches (yes!!!) and I needed some time to get used to my new look, I was very pleased with my new hair. Before Edward Tricomi said goodbye to me he told me that he “cuts hair dry”!
90210’s Jessica Stroup Gets Front Row Flawless with theBalm
Despite the bitter cold of a typical New York winter, Jessica Stroup heated up New York Fashion Week, with smoldering makeup courtesy of theBalm Makeup Artist, Felicia Roman. Wanting all attention on Stroup’s bright blue eyes, Felicia went dramatic with the lids and kept the rest simple.
How to create Felicia Stroup’s makeup look?
1- Pick-Up-Liners in Don Juan were smudged around the lashes and in a thicker line covering most of the bottom part of the lid to achieve smoky definition. Because the Pick Up Liners are half the size of a typical pencil, Felicia was able to get up close and really push the liner into the base of the lashes with perfect precision.
Christian Siriano Fashion Show: Get the Victoria Secret Makeup Look
Key Makeup Artist Polly Osmond for Created a Cleopatra-esqe Look for Christian Siriano’s Fall 2009 Runway Show.
According to Osmond, “The look was based on a modern take of an Egyptian feel. We used heavy golds and blacks. The eyes were lined underneath with VS Makeup Eyeliner in Black Velvet with a more square shape rather than cat like. On the top of eyelids we used a gold shadow (VS Makeup Silky Eyeshadow in Champagne). We highlighted the face using the champagne shadow and lightly contoured with the VS Makeup Goddess Bronzer. On the darker skins, we used the bronzer as the highlighter. Mascara was then applied to top lashes only. Lips were a heavy gold. (For a more wearable shade, try VS Makeup Brilliant Lip Shine in Charm).”

Abaete Fall 2009 Makeup Look
Beauty.com’s celebrity makeup artist Tina Turnbow as created the makeup look for Abaete Fall 2009.
The makeup look at Abaete Fall 2009 Makeup Look: Think 18th Century France – regal, rebellious, and rich designs paired with a soft, feminine touch…
The look for Abaete’s Fall 2009 collection created by Tina Turnbow with Tarte started with fresh skin. Caudalie’s beauty elixir and lip conditioner hydrated skin prior to makeup application. The makeup was natural, no makeup-makeup. Tarte’s ReCreate gave even color and coverage to the face. Brows were softened by wax from the toolbox brow kit and topped by provocateur mineral powder. Liquid Sunshine added a hint of shine on the lids, rejuvalash defined lashes, and Blushing Bride cheek stain, applied sparingly, added the slightest hint of color on lips and cheeks.
